edge://settings shortcut url not working in custom html code

dear community I would like to open edge settings from html code but its not working can you help me out please? when I make simple a href, nothing will happen in edge, why?

<a href="edge://settings/appearance">settings</a>

If you open the Development tools of Edge and try this HTML segment, you will see this error message:

Not allowed to load local resource: edge://settings/appearance

Security measures dictate that local browser settings should not be modifiable by browsed pages, which is why this URL is blocked.

To note that any other browser than Edge will say that it doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (edge) isn't associated with any program.
